I found it unbearable. Watched like 2.5 episodes and had to give up. I couldn’t get past the part where people were waiting for so long they were literally collapsing in the waiting room while the nurses where just chatting and doctors were gossiping, flirting and doing anything but actually treating people. All the time a just wanted to scream “GET TO WORK YOU FUCKING IDIOTS!”.
Nurses weren’t just chatting. The chapter depicts 1h of a shift and lasts 40m. You aren’t seeing everything a nurse is doing. Also, they deserve to talk in their workplace, they aren’t slaves? Remember that they are pulling +12h shifts man.
I think we’re talking about different shows. In The Pit I remember an episode where someone stole an ambulance and for the rest of the episode a bunch of employees where constantly standing there making bets about where it’s heading or something. When a patient needed some basic stomach medicine two nurses standing next to a counter and just talking told the doctor “it will be easier if you give it to him”. The doctor ended up spilling the liquid on himself and wasting what seemed like half an hour to change his clothes. All done without any hurry, like his actively trying to avoid work. All this time I’m thinking “why the fuck a nurse can’t give a patient some basic medicine from the first aid kit?”. Because they where busy chatting. The whole show is like this. They work like they are in IT department of a bank on a Friday evening while people wait 4 hours in the waiting room. That was the worst organized ER I have even seen and/or people with the worse work ethics I’ve seen.
At least the medical drama is really fucking good.

That’s one of the major plot points.
Tap for spoiler
Nurse steps out for a smoke and a patient that had been waiting all day punches her in the face
And that’s why they stop working?
